Julian Assange: 'We Released Thousands of Emails Clinton Herself Has Used a 'C' in Brackets'

It went to Clinton and contains confidential information and the C in brackets in the paragraphs to denote the classification level. Clinton claimed
she never sent nor received classified info - she did. She claimed she didnt know what the C was for even though in those emails they are used. She
also used them in her emails that were outgoing.

I don't think you used the link I gave and I dont think you looked for the information in question. Here is a email she sent that was marked
confidential and contains C in the body of text that was sent by Clinton.

You have been shown an email she received that had classification markings in it, including the text.

They didnt use a private server in their basement in violation of government policy or laws. They didnt send classified info like Clinton did. They
didn't delete emails. They didn't delete emails in violation of a hold order. They didnt delete emails in violation of a subpoena. They didnt claim
they turned over all emails only to find thousands more they didnt. They didnt send SCI material via email. They didnt divert their emails to a
server thats not cleared to have any classified material on it.

It's illegal to lie to Federal investigators, regardless of who you are. You can lie to the cops, and maybe piss them off, but lying to FBI is a
specific crime. People are prosecuted for it all the time, I'll post if I can think of a good example.

Are you aware that it is a criminal offense to lie to a federal government official? Title 18 of the US Code, Section 1001,

a favorite of federal prosecutors, makes it unlawful to lie to a government agent, even if you: · made the false statement without the obligations of
an oath, · didn’t receive warning of the law or its consequences, · were not trying to cheat the government out of money, · or lied about
something that was not materially influential to government matters.

The Law Federal law makes it illegal to intentionally make false statements in any matter “within the jurisdiction” of the government. With the
ever far-reaching powers of the federal government, much of what you say or lie about can be construed as a lie within government’s jurisdiction.

So if you tell the FBI something, you're legally "under oath"? You don't have to be sworn in?

If you tell the FBI something that is false during the course of an investigation its against the law. Just like if you tell your local police
something false during an investigation you can be charged.

The under oath thing usually deals with lawyers and the courts. When you are subpoenaed for court you are sworn in. If you are required to give a
deposition you are sworn in (placed under oath). When you are being questioned by law enforcement and they are asking guilt seeking questions your
miranda rights apply and you can refuse to speak. You can also meet with law enforcement for an interview with your lawyer so they can advise you
during the process.

Thank-you for that detailed response, Xcathdra. Then the additional information that Julian Assange provided to Sean Hannity further proves that
Hillary committed a crime when she was interviewed by the FBI.

Why are Republicans asleep at the wheel on this? They should do whatever is needed to bring Hillary to trial. Last I checked, the GOP held a
majority in both the House and the Senate. You could be your last dollar that the Democrats would have Trump put in jail and throw away the key, if
this were him breaking multiple laws. Even if he were sickly like Hillary.

The issue is the law that allowed Congress to appoint a special prosecutor lapsed and as I understand it was because of a constitutional issue
(conflict where the legislative branch was stepping into the executive branch area of responsibility). Only the AG can appoint an independent
prosecutor.

Congress can request the FBI investigate but in the end the ultimate decision to proceed with charges is up to the attorney general -- Loretta Lynch
in this case. Sure they could impeach lynch or comey but it wont do any good considering how close we are to the elections. There is not enough time
to get a court ruling before then.

In this area the stonewalling by Clinton and Obama over the last years forced these issues to our current point in time with no real time left for the
courts to do their things. We saw them do the same thing before Obama second election where they dragged their feet / lied about Benghazi / fast and
furious / etc. The name of their game plan is called run out the clock.

I think this is why you are seeing the massive release in documents by the FBI and the congressional committees. If they can't use a court of law
then use the court of public opinion and make your case there in hopes people see Clinton for what she is and vote for someone, anyone,
else.

Finally they didn't continue to lie.

Your comparison is invalid.

Private server: irrelevant. Mishandling is mishandling.

Sent classified information: What classified information? Tell us what the classified information regarded, who classified it, when was it
classified, was it marked correctly, who marked it?

Deleted emails: Again, who deleted them? When? Which ones were deleted at what point?

I should add here that we found no evidence that any of the additional work-related e-mails were intentionally deleted in an effort to conceal them.
Our assessment is that, like many e-mail users, Secretary Clinton periodically deleted e-mails or e-mails were purged from the system when devices
were changed. Because she was not using a government account—or even a commercial account like Gmail—there was no archiving at all of her e-mails,
so it is not surprising that we discovered e-mails that were not on Secretary Clinton’s system in 2014, when she produced the 30,000 e-mails to the
State Department.

gryph...this won't be the last time this dead horse is beaten, but I am glad you are responding to it.

Jimmy: I expect a repetition of the repetition of the repetition ... and then some redundancy in the inevitable response.

The fact remains: Clinton did what other SoS have done, what members of Congress are doing right now, there has been no classified material endangered
or lost because of Clinton's email use ... and for the most part, the whole thing is and has been nothing more than a political snipe hunt conducted
on the People's time with the People's money by a Republican Congress that has vastly abused its investigative powers merely to cause harm to a
political rival ON A LEVEL UNHEARD OF in American history.

... and finally, Clinton did not send "thousands" of emails marked with (C) as the OP alledges.

gryph...this won't be the last time this dead horse is beaten, but I am glad you are responding to it.

I am too and very glad, he is proving the opposite points so repeatedly I now have MY talking points sharpened and you guys are still totally
brainwashed into la la land that it is now laughable to foreign members of ATS from their comments. We will lose the entire planet to tyranny with out
due diligence and when we choose to willingly ignore bad players in the power struggle we all lose.

You've awakened common sense in the rest of us that you are not willing to entertain the facts but are willing to spin them to make sure "hrc can do
or know no wrong". Time will not be on that sides team.

If true I don't see how Clinton is going to survive this latest revelation. It would prove she lied to the FBI with regards to classification's used
in emails to denote classified info.

As far as I know, classification markings are spelled out not abbreviated on the actual materials.

Typically it's spelled out at top & bottom of an individual document, or there's a cover sheet with it spelled out.

Abbreviations might be used in documents that reference other materials and include their classification.

Yeah thats the header bs they are trying to spin. In the main body of text paragraphs are marked as well. That is the issue with the lie clinton told
the FBI because emails she sent out not only contain header info they contain paragraph markings as well.

Second the NDA's she signed spells out her responsibility towards the handling of classified information (all levels). As an OCA she also should know
better than to try and make a distinction about markings. Markings are not relevant when it comes to a person in her position and the NDA's she signed
state the same. The NDA's also state that if their is info a person is not sure is classified or not to treat it as classified until the entity
responsible for the information can give a determination.

Clinton violated her oath.
Clinton violated the NDA's she signed.
Clinton violated the MOA she signed with the Obama White House.
Clinton lied to Congress during her confirmation hearings with regards to the clinton foundation.
Clinton destroyed evidence by ignoring a hold order / subpoena.

I can keep going but the remainder of the list would take up several more pages.

Suffice it to say its always someone elses fault according to the Clintons and the laws that govern everyone else dont apply to this blind bat with no
control.
